Hey, new Bluesky friends! If you're following for my hot political takes, I'm also a bestselling fantasy author with a subversive streak that manifests in my work.

And if you followed for book stuff, be forewarned that you're gonna get the politics, too!

It appears my comment has lent itself to misinterpretation. I'm all for prosecuting Trump, I just see breaking Clinton's silence as a potential wedge. Please save your ire for someone who actually disagrees with you. ✌️

In the wake of Zohran winning Jonathan Greenblatt and the ADL have opened a tipline to report Antisemitism. Everyone should call to report Nick Fuentes, Elon Musk, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens and every other right wing group the adl refused to condemn with the same intensity they save for leftists

Now that's an election.

Dick Cheney is dead. He's the last politician to fool me. I mistook him for a normal unscrupulous business tycoon (he picked HIMSELF for VP) until 9/11, when he emerged a deluded, warmongering neocon. Failure to hold those idiots accountable laid some of the groundwork for Trump. Good riddance.

If Clinton's got nothing unsavory to conceal, his voice calling for full disclosure on this issue would be a powerful one.

Fuck. Heartsick at this one, Teen Vogue has been a beacon in dark times. I'll see what happens with Wired, boycotting the rest of the Conde Nast empire.

Vogue. GQ. Vanity Fair. The New Yorker. Glamour. Bon Appetit. Conde Nast Traveler. Architectural Digest. Byeeeeee!

Next up, your advertisers.

I sense my comment has been misinterpreted, but I'm not entirely sure in what manner, so... ✌️

Jacqueline Carey @jacquelinecarey.bsky.social · 4d

Oh, FFS! I've never been a big Hillary Clinton fan, but that's appalling. I've been thinking a lot about Bill and the Epstein thing. I'm ready for him to get thrown under the bus.

This BS is being perpetuated by godawful racist videos flooding social media. It's hard to differentiate between genuine gullibility and disingenuousness, but we're in dire need of media literacy.

ROB SCHMITT: People are using SNAP benefits to get their nails done, to get their weaves and their hair. This is a really ugly program.

SEN. RON JOHNSON: That program needs to be dramatically reformed.

It's a pity that the fossil fuel industry has had a stranglehold on American politics and innovation since the invention of the automobile.

The underlying fundamental economics have changed dramatically: solar is now so cheap that businesses and households all around the world install it often without subsidies. Throw in batteries and the business case just keeps improving.

Sen. Adam Schiff @schiff.senate.gov · 7d

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

There's a disturbingly plausible conspiracy theory making the rounds tying vanished detainees to a Neurolink research facility, so that's an exciting possibility! 😒

Spotify is running recruitment ads for ICE.

A platform built to connect creators and listeners is helping an authoritarian regime build up its secret police force.

But we’re not going to idly accept that. We’re going to make Spotify listen: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

Among other things, Democrats need to reckon with the fact that their credibility is in the toilet w/ younger generations, who see them as the corporate-loving party that's presided over 12 out of the past 16 years of rising income disparity.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

I'm no Reagan fan, but I AM a fan of pointing out when the Toddler-in-Chief is flat out lying.

Yeah, you can gaslight the American people about a lot of things, but it's harder to gaslight our bank accounts.

Mike Johnson shamelessly lies: "We strengthened Medicaid. We improved healthcare access and we lowered premiums with our legislation."

It took me 5 minutes of research to discover that according to the DEA data, 0% of fentanyl originates from Venezuela. Seems relevant. Have you considered doing research in the course of reporting? It's quite effective. 🙄
